Set to take place on the 4th, 5th and 6th of November at SLECC, this international fashion runway is presented by AOD in partnership with DIMO/Mercedes-Benz, making up the tail-end of the global Spring/Summer fashion calendar with collections centred on travel fashion.
Adopting the concept of ‘Travel Fashion’, MBFR aims to identify Sri Lanka as the first Travel Fashion Destination across the world. And just how are they going to accomplish this? Well, Life Online has got you covered!
Over the weeks leading up to MBFR, we will take a closer look at what Travel Fashion is and explore some key trends that you can look forward to seeing on the ramp this November!
So you've got the outfit essentials for your vacation covered. Today, chic style by the ocean!
By The Water Front
Whether you are a surfer or a devout sun worshipper, take the time to relax and unwind in the soothing allure of the ocean.
Here’s all you need in your luggage for a chic look by the shore;
Maxis: An absolute must have! A gorgeous maxi can never go wrong because you can choose to dress it up or dress it down. Bring along maxis that are brightly patterned that would work for simple cocktails on the beach and also for a fancy dinner.
Swimsuits: A beach vacation is nothing without a few killer bikinis! As much as it’s about lounging about by the beach, pack two different kinds of swimwear. Active wear for water sports like surfing and bikinis or a one piece for a dip in the pool.
Crop Tops and Shorts: Avoid bringing anything too dressy because it’s highly likely that you won’t wear it. Go for a more laidback look with a pair of denim jeans and a crop top.
Wraps/Cover Ups and Sarongs: As great as lounging around the beach in your bikini sounds, best pack a breezy cover up so that you can use it for when you want to relax and not change out of your swimwear. A lightweight wrap or sarong will also add a chic and polished look to your style.
Sandals, Wedges and Flip Flops: Leave your heels at home because you won’t be needing them! A simple pair of sandals and flip flops would cover all your exploring needs and a dressy wedge would be the ideal footwear if you find yourself somewhere with a fancier dress code!
Want to catch this trend live on the runway?
